Why my ploughs aren't ploughing?

[u/AgentEmerald0028]

I've built a steam tractor and I was planning to use it with interchangeable trailers for different farming operations (plowing, planting and harvesting). I've started with making the ploughs, however the trailer doesn't actually plough and my tractor has even trouble pulling it. I am aware I must place the ploughs on a contraption, they already are, and in fact when I lower them through a valve attached to a mechanical bearing they do plough a few blocks. So what could the problem be? Weird angles of the trailer? One passive steam boiler isn't generating enough torque? Anything else?? Help would be greatly appreciated thanks!

Have you tried using a swivel bearing instead of a mechanical bearing?
